but it was doing it fine before I downloaded the videos.
Hmmmmmm..... I just tried it as:

 rsync -aWuq --delete-before /home/bmike1/Documents /media/bmike1/RedSanDisk
 rsync -rWuq --delete-before /home/bmike1/Documents /media/bmike1/RedSanDisk
 rsync -ruq --delete-before /home/bmike1/Documents /media/bmike1/RedSanDisk
 rsync -rq --delete-before /home/bmike1/Documents /media/bmike1/RedSanDisk
 rsync -r --delete-before /home/bmike1/Documents /media/bmike1/RedSanDisk
 rsync -a --delete-before /home/bmike1/Documents /media/bmike1/RedSanDisk

 And it keep doing the same thing:

$ rsync -aWuv --delete-before /home/bmike1/Documents
/media/bmike1/RedSanDisk
